Plight Of Infant Loss

Infant Loss and the effects on families in the United States

Infant Loss
This organization is committed to helping with the plight of infant loss. According to statistics, each year, there are approximately 4 million pregnancies in the U. S. of which 1 million pregnancies will result in a loss. The main causes are miscarriage, stillbirth, death caused by prematurity, and Sudden Infant Death syndrome. After such a loss families find it difficult to cope. The type of emotions that one could feel range from disbelief, anger, sadness, guilt, and depression. Many people grieve in silence because most of the people around them do not realize what the family is going through. They do not realize what an affect the loss is having on the family. Losing a child this way is devastating. It’s hard for the families to get the support that is needed when the people around them have never seen, or held the child. The Tyler Nicole Foundation feels that the lives of these children should be recognized no matter how small or brief.
